I love taco John's especially for their super hot sauce. Went to the one in West Bend, Wi around 7:30 pm. Order taker couldn't have been less interested in us. Got one taco with the shell 3/4 broken on one side falling off second one had burger grease soaking through toe bottom of the shell like it had been sitting there made for some time. But yeah, the potatoes ole are outstanding.

First time trying Taco John's. Ordered 2 taco salads & supreme nachos. Counter person was friendly, and food arrived very timely. Meat on taco salad was as cold as the salad (probably pre-made and refrigerated). Nachos were okay, but salty & the size was not worth the price. Worst part of visit was counter person with beard going back into food prep area without beard net; along with the fact that his pants were belted below his butt. I know that is a "style" today, but not acceptable in the food industry. Or, can we all sit in your restaurant in our underwear???? Will not be back!

Basically slightly different Taco Bell, with good tater tots and an incredibly ugly building. (Honestly, I tried them because I felt bad about constantly insulting the building. But I do prefer Taco Bell if I'm going to do either, so my feelings about the building stand.)

They skimp on their breakfast burrito's. Service is great and the food is ok. I would like some eggs, sausage and salsa with by flour tortilla. I will drive the extra 15 minutes to the Waukesha Taco John's. They know how to make a breakfast burrito!!

They were very understaffed when I was there and had a line of cars in the drive thru so my online order took longer than expected but the service and food was much better than other Taco John's. The portions were huge and everything was reasonably priced. The store was extremely clean and well kept. Ill be coming back soon.

I'm leaving my review the way it is because I had Taco johns for the first time the other day I didn't have a good experience the staff didn't seem to like their job and you could feel the vibe was just off and their attitudes could have been more professional but what really got me is that I had asked them to remove the chipotle sause from my crunchy beef burrito they failed to do that so I shrugged it off and I gave them the benefit of the doubt until tonight I ordered the same thing but this time I got one of those apple things that looks like a Mexican pizza it was decent but the burritos still had chipotle sause on them and then I got no crunchy strips like what the heck I was looking forward to that especially because I just got off shift for the night so I wanted something good for dinner i am disappointed and to top it off I have acid reflux so the food tore my stomach up I'll be speaking to the manager the next time I visit this location there's a lot of room for improvement (update) the potato ones are too salty and the food once again has no flavor and I'm dissatisfied if you frequently eat at this restaurant I would recommend that you request the oles to be lightly salted other than that the oles do not disappoint however with the other food the ingredients something needs improvement bc flavor is everything other than that I love eating at Taco John's and their cherry Pepsi is the best for fountain like omg I am impressed 😁

Was charged twice for the same meal. When I spoke to the manager instead apologizing and offering to fix the problem she proceeded to argue with me which is very poor management. She also, stated there was no other way to refund the charge except in person. I asked what if the person was from out of town? They have to drive back anyway to get a refund.

Update: The regional manager reached out to the manager to follow up. The equivalent in funds that I lost will be refunded in the form of a voucher is what I was told but I never received it.

I stopped in as a first time customer wanting to support a new addition to west bend. The woman who took my order was kind and professional. The order was for 6 tacos, 2 beef taco salad bowls (if one were to dump a taco in the bowl that was the portion size) , 1 refried beans (container less than 20% filled) ,2 sides of potatoes which were filled, and drinks. I think it would benefit you as a company to purchase smaller wraps and packaging, something more suitable to the portioning served. The staff were leaning on the counter with arms crossed and back to customers so there's room for improvement. For those seeking good Mexican food please support our taco trucks, Don Ramones, Mescal, or Casa Tequilla.

They’re supposed to close at midnight and unknowingly, I drove through the drive-through super late which I was reminded when the person on the drive through speaker said they were closed. I looked at the time and when I saw it was 11:58 I asked her what Time they close and she said midnight. I said well it’s not midnight yet and she said yeah well we’re closed. She did not have an excuse and was very rude about it. Obviously, they were probably slow and she cleaned up everything and wanted to go home early.. It would be understandable if she was more kind about it And explain the reason more than “just because”. I went out of my way to drive to this location as they just open it up as a new restaurant. Just because she wanted to go home early made it very inconvenient for me. I will not be coming back to this taco John’s and I’ll make sure lots of people know about the unprofessionalism From. I’m assuming the manager. I hope the owner sees this and even though I know it’s impossible these days I hope she gets taught how to respect her customers more being in the service in. It’s really sad how this is how workers are nowadays and they all demand more money which they’re not even worth what they’re getting paid currently.

For breakfast I get the B2 and it's good! My fiance got the B3 for breakfast I asked for no onions, one time they told me there are no onions on it... It did.... Then next time I asked no onions and they said the Pico had onions. So I asked no Pico.. still frickin onions on it. And lots of pico. Y'all need to get your menu figured out and train your people how to take the food all the same way and the right damn way.

Me, my dad, and my little brother were getting lunch while waiting for a 2 hour wait-list for great clips and I ordered a taco salad and the super nachos, when I ordered the super nachos, I asked for no beans, no guacamole, and no tomatoes. I still got those three things that I didn't want on the nachos because I hate beans, guacamole, and tomatoes. I didn't know what would be on the taco salad, so I left that alone. Next time I go again and I'll order the same thing again I'll just ask for no beans, guacamole, and tomatoes on the taco salad and super nachos.

I understand that they are beginning to adapt and the only thing I think is that the potatoes are too salty, which is a bit difficult for the palate. They should reduce the salt content a little with the potatoes.

First time I've ever had taco johns and it was an awful experience. First off I had to wait in the drive through line for about 25mins. When I pulled up the the window, I waited only to be told my order would take too long and I had to come inside. I wasn't even wearing shoes. I had slippers on because I didn't expect to go inside.

Finally get my order, soda is spilling off the top, I'm pissed so I just head home right away. I should have known to check my bag because they forgot the sauce, quesadilla, and potato oles. So like half my order. Never going back. Just go to taco bell, it's right down the street.

I tried calling to get some sort of refund and shocking none of the kids working there answered the phone.

Save your money/ time and go to taco bell or qdoba. By far the worst take out I've ever had. Got the potato burrito combo and my girlfriend got the quesodilla combo. The worst quesodilla ive ever tried. By far the most mid food I've ever had. Especially for the price. The queso was tastless and had a pasticy texture. The food also took forever to get out the window. The building was cool tho🤷‍♂️

I came here on Veterans Day. While waiting for my food, I watched the cashier tel an old veteran that he couldn’t give him the advertised promotion because he had to do it online. Come on guys, the old man probably doesn’t even own a computer. In addition to this, the service was so incredibly slow. Expect a 30 min wait. Watching the employees, they are moving like turtles.

Went to this Taco Johns for the first time a week ago and was not impressed. I get the location is new and so is the staff but the dining area hadnt looked like it was cleaned all day. Me and my family were the only ones ordering when we got there and we waited almost an hour for our food. I could have eaten at a sit down restraunt and been out the door faster. To top it off we waited so long for our order to be wrong then had to wait longer to get it right. All while what I assume was the manager was being pretty rude to the other employees. If youre going to be rude at least try not doing it right in front of the customers. Good Job West Bend Taco Johns............I won't be back.

Ordered online 30min beforehand, food was to be ready by 7pm, waited in store until 7:45 which is unacceptable even if they're still new(for 5 tacos). Don't waste time thinking online ordering will be faster, watched 10 other people order after I got there and they were done eating before I got my order. Maybe in a year I'll try again, but no sooner!

Every time I come here, either my order isn't correct or I get overcharged. Employees need better training, yet up-selling is the only thing they know how to get right. Also, the dining room is too small. There is often no open tables during peak hours.

The main reason I ordered from Taco John's was because it's new in my town and I never had food from Taco John's. I wanted to avoid the long lines in the drive thru and order lines inside.

I ordered through maps, and Postmates, my order was delivered by UberEATS. I ordered the grilled soft taco combo, which came with a small drink. I ordered a large Potato Oles.

Be prepared to be charged for each side, sour cream, nacho cheese sauce, and guacamole, all 1.49 each.

Potato Oles were the star of the whole meal. They are just coin sized tater tots, crispy and tasty. I heard that Potato Oles are the star of Taco John's. I guess they don't want to disappoint.

The grilled soft taco was put in the bottom of the bag under the condiments and bucket of Potato Oles. The grilled soft taco came squished flat, it tasted good but, nothing I couldn't make at home.

Just went through the drive-through. Ordered a #1 with nacho cheese and 2 burritos. I got the drink, 2 tacos, and 2 burritos. No olés or nacho cheese... Already drove 20 minutes home, so it's not worth it to drive all the way back, but if I hadn't used rewards to get some $$ off the price, I'd be a lot more upset. Half the meal isn't in the bag...

Yesterday employee midafternoon taking orders had dark curly hair hanging over eyes and some sort of headband. He kept touching hair so he could see down to ordering device. Not anywhere near compliance to Wis law on hair containment. Comment on lettuce in taco salad, large large pieces , never had this at TJ. Mgr , look at what your customer sees upon entering,.

Went on grand opening around 5pm and it was packed. Drive thru line was pretty long and so was the line inside. They took orders pretty quickly inside and everyone was very friendly. Food came out shortly after and was really good. Only downside is that there really isn't enough tables at the moment for how busy it is.
